Casual Preppers Podcast - Prepping, Survival, Entertainment.

Explore Hollywood’s strangest movie curse legends, from human skeletons and deadly accidents to radioactive fallout and lightning strikes. Hear the eerie stories behind Poltergeist, The Omen, The Exorcist, The Crow, Rosemary’s Baby, Superman, and The Wizard of Oz, plus a supposedly deadly screenplay, a lost Esperanto horror film, and the hoax behind the Dybbuk Box.

Apartment living makes preparedness a whole different game. Explore compact water and food storage, blackout cooking, portable power, safer lighting, temperature control, fire safety, security, communications, and sanitation. The discussion also covers elevators, neighbors, medications, lease restrictions, and how to recognize when staying put is no longer safe.

Alien invasions, velociraptors, raccoon zombies, and Lady Bigfoot collide in a wildly entertaining survival Q&A. Alongside the absurd hypotheticals come practical discussions about hospital go-bags, tsunami routes, blended-family emergency plans, everyday carry, and avoiding prepper paranoia. Plus: dream apocalypse weapons, survival animals, apocalypse potatoes, and the eternal question of whether Arby’s is worth attending a terrifying convention.

What happens when the tap runs dry, or flowing water becomes unsafe? This practical discussion explores emergency storage, hidden household reserves, rain and pool collection, filtration, boiling, chemical contamination, and stretching every gallon. It also tackles sanitation without toilets, essential pumps and containers, contamination control, and safely restoring service when the crisis ends.

A nostalgia-fueled countdown of 1980s movie favorites, from Back to the Future and The Goonies to Predator, Ghostbusters, and The Lost Boys. Expect heated debates over number-one picks, forgotten classics, Christmas staples, dystopian Arnold action, John Hughes, Spielberg, Corey Feldman, and the films that defined childhoods.

72 Hours at the End of the Road What happens when a completely normal neighborhood gets cut off from the outside world for 72 hours? In this episode, we drop into a fictional cul-de-sac after a violent storm washes out the only road, knocks out power, disrupts water service, and leaves twenty households to figure things out on their own. As the hours pass, the problems start stacking up: medication shortages, generator fuel, questionable water, stranded family members, neighborhood security, hidden supplies, rumors, theft scares, and one very unfortunate missing gas can. We work through the scenario hour by hour and ask what we would actually do, what gear really matters, how much we would share with neighbors, and how quickly a group of normal people could either become a functioning community or completely turn on each other.

A 1955 Kentucky farmhouse claimed to be besieged by small glowing, big-eyed creatures that shrugged off gunfire. The story’s police response, physical traces, and crowds that turned the property into roadside lore are explored. Skeptical theories range from hoax and intoxication to carnival actors and great horned owls. The case’s influence on pop culture and lingering mysteries are also touched on.

The Last Grocery Trip Before SHTF Something is happening, the shelves are still stocked, and you’ve got one more shot to make a grocery run before things get weird. In this episode, we break down how to handle that last trip without becoming the guy panic-buying 11 cases of water and a pallet of toilet paper. We cover what to prioritize, how to shop based on the actual emergency, overlooked second-wave shortages, foods that require more water and fuel than you might think, checkout and payment problems, cold storage, and knowing when it’s time to stop shopping and get home. More importantly, we talk about how to build enough everyday preparedness that someday this entire trip becomes optional.
